    Neoprene seat covers

    Hi All,

    Looking at getting a set of seat covers for the D4 to protect from kids & dog. Had neoprene on the previous 4WD and they were great for beach trips so would go them again.

    So far I'm looking at Wetseat and Supertrim, would be good to hear if anyone has them (or others) & thoughts. The Supertrim covers are about $200 cheaper for a full set than Wetseat & are Australian made.

    I have Wetseat. Very happy. Great fit and so far very durable.

    Inland Australia did a great set of neoprene seat covers for my old D1.

    Hadn't come across Inland - turns out they are the parent company for Wetseat.

    Weseat have a 35 day turn-around for dispatch. Will see if Supertrim are similar.

    I'm keen to know this too - especially for use in hot climate.

    I've had a set of black sheepskin covers on the front seat virtually since I bought my D4 in 2011 - they are just about due to be replaced. So I am looking at other options possibly, or may just go and get another pair of decent quality sheepskin covers.
    Cheers .........

    Had a set in the previous car which were great for protecting from kids / dog and very good for beach work. Didn't have them from new but no smell or sweaty seats in the heat, They also fitted & felt nicer than most of the heavy duty canvas covers I've used in work vehicles.

    Sheepskin would be a good alternative if you were sure of no spills. I did see one D4 when looking to buy that had sheepskin front & neoprene 2nd row.

    I have a set of Kings (made in China) that were on the D3 when I bought it. Other than them not fitting particularly well around the seat base I’ve been quite happy with them over the last 4 years. They are black, but they don’t seem to hold the heat in the sun. No smell, no real issue with sweat.

    I’m looking at sheepskins next but I’ve been waiting for these to die and they just seem to keep going.

    Do the supertrim covers extend down the back of the middle seats? The carpeted seat backs get covered in hair from the dog when she's in the boot.

    Supertrim have stated a 1-2 week manufacturing timeframe compared to over a month from wet seat so thinking I'll go with them.
